Choice Hotels International has opened its 600th extended-stay hotel, marking a milestone for the company’s economy and midscale extended-stay portfolio and underscoring continued growth in the segment.

The 600th property, the Everhome Suites Denver Airport, is located less than 10 miles from Denver International Airport. The hotel serves a market supported by industries including healthcare, logistics, construction and infrastructure, and major employment centers.

Designed for longer-term travelers, the property includes studio and one-bedroom suites with full kitchens and flexible living areas. Guests also have access to nearby attractions including the Rocky Mountain Arsenal National Wildlife Refuge, Denver Zoo and Green Valley Ranch Golf Club.

“The opening of our 600th property is a celebration of how far we've come and a signal of where we're headed, with Everhome Suites leading the way,” Matt McElhare, vice president and extended-stay segment lead for Choice Hotels International, said in a statement.

The company has built its extended-stay business through dedicated operational support and development expertise, helping franchisees identify growth opportunities and improve hotel performance, McElhare said in a statement.

Choice said Everhome Suites has become an important growth driver within its extended-stay portfolio and represents a significant expansion opportunity for the company.

“Everhome Suites has been a natural complement to our WoodSpring Suites portfolio, giving us an elevated purpose-built extended-stay product that serves a different guest in high-demand markets,” said Micah Linton, CEO of Rimrock Companies, owner of the Everhome Suites Denver Airport.

Linton said the Denver Airport hotel is Rimrock’s second Everhome Suites property, with several additional locations in development. He credited the company’s long-standing relationship with Choice Hotels’ extended-stay team as a key factor in its growth and said the ownership group is proud the hotel represents the brand’s 600th extended-stay property.

Choice Hotels’ extended-stay portfolio includes Everhome Suites, MainStay Suites, Suburban Studios and WoodSpring Suites. The company reported that the segment has delivered 12 consecutive quarters of double-digit room growth, including 13 percent net room growth year over year during the second quarter of 2026.

The company also has nearly 30,000 extended-stay guestrooms in its development pipeline. According to Choice, continued owner demand and ongoing investment in technology, tools and operational capabilities are helping support expansion across its extended-stay brands.
